RICK AND MORTY Rickrolls Us All with New Season 3 Trailer

Share:

Part of what we love about Rick and Morty is how willing the show is to do just about anything for a laugh. The network and creators know that we’ll pretty much love whatever they decide to send our way. And while we’re all still waiting for any real glimpse of season three of Rick and Morty, Adult Swim thought it necessary to prank us in a manner that would make Rick Sanchez of dimension C-137 proud. And you know what? We kinda love them for it.

We never would have thought we’d enjoy getting Rickrolled… and yet, here we are. There’s no real footage of season three in the video above, but it’s impressive when you think about the effort applied just to mess with an eager audience. We can only imagine the nightmare of a workday(s) a team of editors must have had putting this together, but the final product is glorious. By taking bits and pieces of dialogue from past seasons, they were able to cut together the first verse and chorus of Rick Astley’s 1987 mega-hit “Never Gonna Give You Up.” Lots of these videos exist on the internet but this one is particularly special because it leans into the unique voice of the show. Or, rather, the unique manner of stuttered speech that its main characters share.

The Rick(and Morty)roll might be our favorite rendition, and although we can’t imagine how long it took to just make the 46 second clip, we hope someone out there (with a LOT of free time) cuts together the rest of the song.

Y-y-y-y-you mad about season three, Morty? Wh-why *BURP* don’t you wh-whine about it in the comments below!
